17 November 1874. Browning, Robert to Carmichael, Lady.

Nov. 17. ’74
Dear Lady Carmichael,
How deeply grieved I am at the sad news which broke on me this morning at first sight of the newspaper! I returned with my sister from a long stay in France, only last night: during our absence, we have had similar announcements of the loss of six friends,—five intimate ones—& now this is the seventh sorrow! I know the affectionateness of all your family, & what you have to endure at this moment: but I cannot help saying my poor word of sympathy.
We came home by Antwerp & spent three days there with Pen—& on some other occasion
